BOTTLE 50 CL. Tons of diacetyl and dusty grains. The caramel and a touch of toast is hard to notice behind all the mess. Then goes green apple astringency, some earthiness, green fruit pity bitterness, and even some (harsh) red wine - all these (normally considered off-flavours for a lager), balance the sweetness well and masks out some of the dirt. In the end, after it has taken its time to breathe a nit, it gets quite passable, though, I doubt I would want to buy another bottle.

500ml bottle from a trade with dnicolaescu. Pours a pleasant dark gold with a small and frothy off-white head. Aroma is similar to wine. Taste is bread, heavily diluted wine and hints of metal. Moderate sweetness. Finish is slightly bitter. Seems more like a kellerbier than a pale lager. Either way it is a strange beer.

A fine finger thick off white head, on top of a hazy golden body. Mellow malty, and herbal hoppy aroma. Some acidic notes Quite fresh and nice. Medium body. Moderate sweet, and an ok bitterness. A bit dry ending. Unusual fresh lager. Unusual lager in most ways. Acidic citric, mellow malty, some fruity notes and some yeast. I really like this one. But would not guess it was a pale lager!

Pours a very hazy golden color, topped with a small white head that soon settles to a tiny cover. Herbal aroma, slight soury notes, reminiscent of wine. The taste is slightly fruity, some grapes. Later quite soury that also leaves some acid feel in the aftertaste. Doesn’t taste like your regular lager. Drinkable but not sure if I like it.

Bottle, many thanks dnicolaescu, stable creamy head, very cloudy lightish orange colour, lemony fruity aroma with rubbery notes, sour fruity flavour with some vinegary notes and honey in the back, light bitterness. This is refreshing and quite enjoyable, though i am not sure this is what it was supposed to be.

Cloudy and greyish yellow. Good head. A bit of lambic in aroma and even more in taste. Infected?

Fra flaske på RBHD-treff ombord på Fridtjofen mai-14: mitt første (og sannsynligvis eneste) øl noengang fra Transdniestra - et land kun anerkjent av Putin og Ratebeer. Flott skum! Ufiltrert og upasteurisert. Aroma av gress og kløver. Noko syrleg. Kveldens (og forhåpentligvis eneste) nakkeskudd.
